Pretty cool. I will have to take a closer look at those. Thanks.

there are a few very high-class homes about 15-20 minutes from me, and a few of them have giant, GORGEOUS tanks! they just put them in their front office/sitting room/im-rich-and-have-no-purpose-for-this-space-room/whatever, and they just leaves the curtains open!

they flaunt it!

Hell yes!! That's what I'm gonna do on my next house. I want to spread the cheer. Looky here see what I have!!

you would think that the cops would know that you grow dope under 3500k HPS lighting, not 20k MH....

I live in an apartment complex off the interstate, my parents came to visit and pointed out that you can see my apartment from the exit ramp.

The 80 year old neighbor lady thought I had a tanning bed. I would officially be the whitest tanning bed owner known to man if it was. Especially for running the thing 10 hours a day.

There's 2 houses on our lot.
My landlord was looking at the meters, " huh, this one isn't working...oh wait, there it goes, but muuuch slower than the other. The slower must be your smaller house Dave"
I just smiled and kept my mouth shut.
He still thinks my 90g was a big deal, he doesn't even realize I bumped to 180g!
And when he saw meter, I was running both to cycle b4 swap.

You can tell I am a reefer, because I am always dumping buckets of water in the yard.

killed half my backyard lawn by doing that. now i dump on the weeds

When doing water changes I would just have a line going outside. So whenever I did them I would have a damp yard. Also this past summer tring to hide that I was using water I wasn't suppose to was a tricky thing to do. It was during the droughts when we werent suppose to use water.

I have a deck on the front and on the back. I have found no better weed killer to keep me from mowing/slashing/grabbing the weeds out from under them. Maybe we could sell our used water to landscapers?

If you think about it, a marine fish tank is kinda like active camoflague for ganj growers . Just hide the growroom behind the tank.

 

[hyperfocal]

Too funny! You can see my son's nano through his bedroom window, even though it's on the second floor. There's no question it's a fish tank, so I expect no visits from Sheriff Roscoe P. Coltrain.

If I catch a hint of a tank as I'm driving through the neighborhood, I can't help but slow down and take a quick glance. Invariably, it's freshwater :-(

It is alot of fun to walk around our neighboorhood and figure out which houses have reef tanks by the glow. It is also a good way to meet your neighboors.

My wife and I bought a new house last year. I pushed for the one that was next to the house with the blue lights. It was a BIG ora - I almost knocked on the door to see if the guy wanted to trade frags.

Do IT... Knock , Knock ?!!!

 

[miwoodar]

Unfortunately, we bought a different house. I would have to drive halfway across town to do so.

I look for the "reefer glow"... you know, the glow of actinic or halide shining through a window. When I'm picking something up from a local reefer's house, I use directions to get onto the street and then try to find the house by the glow.

Guess which apartment is mine:

I was wondering about this lol. For now, The jones's will just think I'm one happy xmas guy with totally blue lights shining through my front window (that of which I do house a totally blue lit tree). But after the holidays, the E.T-like glow will still prevail. I might have to get black blinds becaue the glow is so immense lol

 

[AquaKnight]

House with big front bay window, sweet! Putting tank in front room, cool. Having your house act as a street lamp, not the best...

 

[A.T.T.R]

best tip for stoping the glow out the windows..

use tap water

in a few months your front glass will have so muh algae that no light will shine in



i have a lot of lights in my garadge in a condo. and an ac unit in the attic( you can hear itfrom the street) also sometimes i open the door when the halides are on and im messing around in there IM WAITING FOR SOME ONE TO ASK if im growing pot. or better yet... if i want to trade some frags
